"AmStar Systems Inc., a self-service financial kiosk manufacturer, is releasing a new automated check-cashing and multi-function ATM, according to a news release. The ATM is expected to hit the streets in late summer.

"The ATM also allows use of a PIN-based prepaid debit card.

"To obtain the debit card for check-cashing, the customer must answer questions at the ATM for I.D. verification and an OFAC scan as required by the Patriot Act. If the customer is approved, the machine dispenses the PIN-based debit card and the customer can continue with the check-cashing process. The ATM also offers money-transfer and money-order service."

About this blog

Interactive kiosks are self-contained computing terminals that provide access to on-demand information and transactions. Some examples include airport self-check-in systems, retail product locators, and bill pay kiosks. The industry is large and highly fragmented, so the articles in this blog may pertain to all of the things that go into making an interactive kiosk project work: hardware, software, peripherals, servicing, logistics, marketing, etc.
